Pros

Strong remote work culture. High-quality teams with a focus on building awesome tech and products. Inspiring and charismatic leadership, both on the engineering and sales sides of the shop. Elastic is riding an adoption wave that came from building an incredibly useful, non-disruptive technology that everyone needs. I've been here only a short time, but I'm very impressed.

Cons

This is a place for those who are looking to do something with their careers.

It's full of A-players and not a place for those who want to coast off previous titles and accomplishments.

I've gotten promises from leadership that work-life balance is a priority, and they've stuck to their word.

It's very much still a startup, so there is the opportunity here to burn out very quickly if you don't know how to manage/balance your own time.

Advice to Management

Continue to excel at products without losing the open source energy or creativity.
